wherein R and M are defined in the specification. The organic silicon compound is produced by reacting polysilsesquioxane, which is obtained by hydrolyzing a silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups and represented by the following Formula (2), with a monovalent alkaline metal hydroxide in an organic solvent, or by subjecting the silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups to hydrolysis and polycondensation in the presence of an organic solvent and an alkaline metal hydroxide:
 R—Si X 3   (2) 
wherein R is the same as in Formula (1) and X represents a hydrolyzable group.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a novel organic silicon compound in which a structure is prescribed. More specifically, it relates to a novel organic silicon compound which has a reaction active group and from which capable of being derived are various organic silicon compounds useful for a modifying agent for thermoplastic resins, an interlayer dielectric, a sealing material, a coating material and a flame retardant making use of this reaction active group, and a production process for the same.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

An organic silicon compound intermediate having a structure represented by the following Formula (3) has so far been known as an intermediate from which various organic silicon compounds useful for a modifying agent for thermoplastic resins can be derived:

R₁ in Formula (3) is hydrogen, methyl, isobutyl, cyclohexyl, cyclopentyl, phenyl or vinylhexyl. And these R₁'s are the same group.

Such compound is usually synthesized by hydrolyzing chlorosilane and ripening. Frank J. Feher et al. of California University obtained the compound represented by Formula (3) described above by reacting cyclopentyltrichlorosilane in a mixed solvent of water and acetone at a room temperature or a refluxing temperature and ripening it for further 2 weeks (Organometallics, 10, p. 2526 to 2528 (1991) and Chemical European Journal (Chem. Eur. J.), 3, No. 6, p. 900 to 903 (1997)).

New organic silicon compounds can be derived from such publicly known organic silicon compound by making use of a reactivity of silanol (Si—OH), and when industrially synthesizing derivatives, desired are compounds having an active group which has a higher reactivity than that of the above silanol and which produces less by-products.

When industrially making use of them, desired is a reaction in which synthesis of such publicly known organic silicon compounds is completed for short time and in which by-products are less likely to be produced and a yield is high. However, the publicly known production process described above, have the problems that long time is required for the synthesis and that a lot of by-products are produced and a yield of the target compounds is low.

Further, when the derivatives of new organic silicon compounds are synthesized from such publicly known organic silicon compounds and chlorosilanes, hydrogen chloride is produced by reacting hydrogen of silanol with chlorine of chlorosilane, but hydrogen chloride is not produced by using the organic silicon compound of the present invention even if it is reacted with chlorosilanes, and therefore the reaction can more readily be handled from an industrial point of view.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

The present inventors have repeated intensive researches of an intermediate which has a high reactivity and from which obtained is an organic silicon compound useful as a modifying agent for thermoplastic resins, an interlayer dielectric, a sealing material, a coating material and a flame retardant. As a result thereof, they have found that a novel organic silicon compound represented by the following Formula (1) can be produced at a high yield for short time by reacting polysilsesquioxane, which is obtained by hydrolyzing a silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups, with a monovalent alkaline metal hydroxide in an organic solvent, or by subjecting a silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups to hydrolysis and polycondensation in the presence of an organic solvent and an alkaline metal hydroxide. Also, they have found that the compound represented by the above Formula (1) shows a higher reactivity than that of a silanol group of a compound represented by Formula (3), and that the derivative can easily be synthesized at a good yield. Further, they have found that introduction of ONa in place of conventional OH makes it possible to readily handle the reaction without producing hydrogen chloride in a synthetic reaction of the derivative of the above organic silicon compound using chlorosilanes, and that a complete condensation product can be derived by reacting with trichlorosilanes. The present invention has been completed based on these knowledges.

The compound represented by Formula (1) according to the present invention can not be synthesized by the methods disclosed in Organometallics, 10, p. 2526 to 2528 (1991) and Chemical European Journal (Chem. Eur. J.), 3, No. 6, p. 900 to 903 (1997). Further, a method for deriving the compound represented by Formula (1) according to the present invention from the compound represented by Formula (3) has not yet been known.

As apparent from the above descriptions, an object of the present invention is to provide a novel organic silicon compound which has a high reactivity and from which capable of being derived is a novel organic silicon compound useful as a modifying agent for thermoplastic resins, an interlayer dielectric, a sealing material, a coating material and a flame retardant, and a process for producing the same at a good yield.

M described above shall not specifically be restricted as long as it is alkaline metals, and for example, lithium, sodium, potassium and cesium are given as such alkaline metal.

Also, the hydroxides of the alkaline metals represented by M described above can be used for the monovalent alkaline metal hydroxide. To be specific, they include lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide and cesium hydroxide, and commercially available products can be used for them as they are.

A use amount of the hydroxides of the alkaline metals is preferably 0.1 to 5 time mole, more preferably 0.2 to 1 time mole based on the silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups and represented by Formula (2). If it is larger than 5 time mole, cyclic, branched and linear siloxane compounds having a low molecular weight are liable to be produced. On the other hand, it is smaller than 0.1 time mole, high molecular weight products are liable to be produced, and a lot of compounds, which are not regulated in a structure, are likely to be produced.

An amount of water, which is used when synthesizing the organic silicon compound of the present invention by subjecting the silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups described above to hydrolysis and polycondensation in the presence of the monovalent alkaline metal hydroxide and the organic solvent, is preferably 0.5 to 5 time mole, more preferably 1 to 3 time mole based on the silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups. If the above amount of water is larger than 5 time mole, high molecular weight products are liable to be produced. On the other hand, if it is smaller than 0.5 time mole, hydrolysis does not sufficiently proceed, and siloxane compounds having a low molecular weight are liable to be produced or the hydrolyzable group is likely to remain.

Commercially available organic solvents can be used as the organic solvent described above, and among them, ethers or alcohols are preferred. In this case, dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and 1,4-dioxane can be given as the ethers. Also, linear, branched or cyclic monohydric alcohols can be given as the alcohols. Capable of being given are, for example, methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-hexanol and 1-octanol as the linear alcohols, 2-propanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, 2-hexanol and 3-hexanol as the branched alcohols, and cyclopentanol, cyclohexanol and cycloheptanol as the cyclic alcohols. But the above alcohols shall not be restricted to these alcohols given as the examples.

Time required until the reaction is finished is varied depending on conditions such as the kind and the amount of the organic solvent, and the reaction can be finished normally in several minutes to several hours. The reaction conditions are maintained, if necessary, for further 5 to 10 hours in a certain case in order to sufficiently complete the reaction. After finishing the reaction, the compound of the present invention can be separated by removing the solvent by filtration.

The organic silicon compound thus obtained can be analyzed as it is in order to confirm that it has the structure represented by Formula (1) described above, but because of reactivity given to the above organic silicon compound, the reaction is likely to take place in the middle of the analysis to obtain erroneous analytical results. In order to avoid it, the alkaline metal coordinated is replaced by a trimethylsilyl group to convert the above compound to an organic silicon compound represented by the following Formula (4) to suppress a progress in the reaction, whereby reliability of the analytical results can be raised. Further, the solubility in almost all organic solvents is elevated by converting to the organic silicon compound represented by Formula (4), so that the analytical method of the structure is diversified and facilitated.

R in Formula (4) is the same as R in Formula (1) described above, and TMS represents a trimethylsilyl group.

When using, for example, polysilsesquioxane obtained by hydrolyzing the silane compound having three hydrolyzable groups in which R is a phenyl group, it was confirmed from proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H-NMR) and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³C-NMR) of the product that a phenyl group and a trimethylsilyl group were present in an integral ratio of 7:3, and confirmed from silicon-29 nuclear magnetic resonance (²⁹Si-NMR) that 11.547 ppm originating in the trimethylsilyl group and three kinds of peaks of −77.574 ppm, −78.137 ppm and −78.424 ppm (all based on tetramethylsilane), originating in the T structure having a phenyl group, were present in a ratio of 1:3:3, and it was indicated that the product had a structure represented by the following Formula (5). Further, it was confirmed from the measuring results obtained by mass spectrometry that the absolute molecular weight was consistent with the theoretical molecular weight of the structure represented by the following Formula (5). Further, confirmed from the analytical results obtained by an infrared absorption spectrum method (IR) were absorptions assigned respectively to deformation vibration of Si-Ph in 1430 and 1590 cm⁻¹, harmonic vibration of a substituted benzene ring in 1960 to 1760 cm⁻¹, stretching vibration of Si—O—Si in 1200 to 950 cm⁻¹ and vibration of Si—CH₃ in 1250 cm⁻¹. It is supported by these results that the compound replaced by a trimethylsilyl group has the structure represented by the following Formula (5), and this indicates that the organic silicon compound obtained has a structure represented by the following Formula (6):

In Formula (5), Ph represents a phenyl group, and TMS represents a trimethylsilyl group.

In Formula (6), Ph represents a phenyl group, and Na represents sodium.

The organic silicon compound of the present invention is a novel organic silicon compound from which various useful organic silicon compounds can be derived, and it is expected to be applied in a wide area. It is useful, for example, as an organic silicon compound which can be applied to wide fields such as a modifying agent for thermoplastic resins, an interlayer dielectric, a sealing material, a coating material and a flame retardant or as a raw material compound for them.

Example 1

(1) Synthesis of Polysilsesquioxane

Then. a mixed solution of 211.5 g of phenyltrichiorosilane and 130 g of toluene, dried on molecular sieves for a whole day and night, was dropwise added thereto at a temperature of not exceeding 2° C. in one hour. Next, after stirring at a room temperature for 30 minutes, the solution was washed with refined water, and the solvent was distilled off by heating under reduced pressure to obtain 120.7 g of a residue.

Deionized water 11 g was dropwise added thereto from the dropping funnel in about 2 minutes while stirring at a room temperature by means of a magnetic stirrer, and then the flask was heated on an oil bath up to a temperature at which 2-propanol was refluxed. After refluxing was started, stirring was continued for 1.5 hour to complete the reaction. Then, the flask was pulled up from the oil bath and left standing still a night at a room temperature to completely deposit a solid matter produced. The solid matter deposited was filtrated through a pressure filter equipped with a membrane filter having a pore diameter of 0.1 μm.

The powdery solid matter thus obtained was subjected to structural analysis by means of ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, ²⁹Si-NMR, mass spectrometry and IR analysis.

It was confirmed from a ¹H-NMR chart shown in FIG. 1 and a ¹³C-NMR chart shown in FIG. 2 that a phenyl group and a trimethylsilyl group were present in an integral ratio of 7:3. It was confirmed from ²⁹Si-NMR shown in FIG. 3 that 11.547 ppm originating in the trimethylsilyl group and three kinds of peaks of −77.574 ppm, −78.137 ppm and −78.424 originating in the T structure having a phenyl group (all based on tetramethylsilane) were present in a ratio of 1:3:3.

Subsequently, stirring was continued at a room temperature for one hour, and then the reaction was finished. Next, 20 g of deionized water was added thereto to hydrolyze unreacted n-propyltrichlorosilane. Then, the organic layer was washed by a normal method, dried on anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and condensed under reduced pressure by means of a rotary evaporator to obtain a white solid matter.

Comparative Example 1

Synthesis and analysis were carried out by the same methods as in Example 5, except that 0.93 g of a compound represented by the following Formula (8), which was obtained from Hybrid Plastics Co., Ltd., was used in stead of the compound of the present invention. However, since the reactive active group was a silanol group, the reactivity with n-propyltrichlorosilane was bad, and the targeted complete condensation product was not obtained, so that the powder was not recovered:
